If you want to be able to commit things to CVS, first contribute some
stuff to show you are serious.  Then, very nicely ask 
<a href="mailto:andersen@codepoet.org">Erik Andersen</a> if he will set you up with 
an account.  To access CVS, you will want to add the following to set up your environment:
<pre>
$ export CVS_RSH=/usr/bin/ssh
$ export CVSROOT='username@busybox.net:/var/cvs'</pre>
<br>
It goes without saying you must change <em>username</em> to your own
username...
<p>

To obtain commit access, you will need to demonstrate you are
serious by submitting a few good patches first.  Then, you will need to 
select a user-name to use when committing stuff, and finally, you will
need to either send me a crypted password, which you will use to connect 
to the system, or send me an ssh key.  
To create a crypted password, you can do something like the following (and
please remember to change your password to something other then<em>foo</em>!):

<pre>
$ PASSWORD=foo perl -e 'srand ; @salt=(a..z,A..Z,0..9); \
    print crypt($ENV{PASSWORD}, $salt[rand(62)].$salt[rand(62)]), "\n";'
<b>o0naQJuvFx4UA</b>
</pre>

If you'd like to use MD5 passwords instead, try something like the following:

<pre>
$ PASSWORD=foo perl -e 'srand ; @salt=(a..z,A..Z,0..9); \
    print crypt($ENV{PASSWORD}, "\$1\$".$salt[rand(62)].$salt[rand(62)]), "\n";'
<b>$1$Kp$rBBvl5cuAeJjJ6U1hCqpU1</b>
</pre>

Then I take your crypted password as is (i.e., the output of either of
these commands), drop it into the cvs password file, and you are set to
go.
<p>
Note that if your are really worried that others might see your crypted
password, or your ssh key, you can encrypt the email containing your
crypted password using my <a href="http://www.codepoet.org/~andersen/erik/gpg.asc">public key</a>.
